Fritz J. Trybus, DVM

Veterinarian, Practice Owner

 

Dr. Fritz Trybus has been a veterinarian in the area for over 17 years.  Being a veterinarian is not just a job to him, it is part of who he is and has always been his calling in life.  He established the Cary Grove Animal Hospital (CGAH) in June 2012.  Prior to practicing at CGAH he practiced at the Animal Hospital of Woodstock in Woodstock, IL.  and at the Companion Animal Specialty & Emergency Hospital in Crystal Lake, IL for several years.  He built our new hospital building and moved Cary Grove Animal Hospital in to its current state of the art location on Route 14 in Cary on April 27, 2015.    

Dr. Fritz spends the majority of his time performing surgical and dental procedures at Cary Grove Animal Hospital.  He is trained in both general surgery as well as more advanced operations (Cruciate Ligament surgeries, foreign body surgery, splenectomy, etc see more on our Surgical Services page).  He is also available for surgical consultation visits, second opinions or more involved cases.  He also consults with the other team doctors on general appointments and medical cases to help foster our team approach to the treatment of our patients.  Having several doctors on staff brings our patients a large amount of experience and knowledge to be able to provide them with the best veterinary care possible. 

While he mainly treats dogs and cats, Dr. Fritz is also experienced with rabbits and guinea pigs.  He is a board member of the Rabbit and Cavy (Guinea Pig) Health Committee with the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA).  He has been an ARBA member for over 33 years and a Rabbit Judge for over 23 years. 

Dr. Fritz lives in rural McHenry County with a menagerie of his own and is a self proclaimed "crazy animal person."  He has dogs, cats, horses, and a small herd of fainting goats.  When not at the Cary Grove Animal Hospital, he enjoys working on his hobby farm where he breeds, trains and shows American Quarter and Paint Horses.

Dr. Quinn is a graduate of the University Of Illinois College Of Veterinary Medicine and previously practiced in the Buffalo Grove area.  Prior to entering Veterinary school, she was a Veterinary Technician and supervisor at an animal hospital in Champaign, IL.  During that time she became very dedicated to providing clients with as much education about their pets as possible and continues to provide that as a doctor today.

Dr. Quinn is very detailed in her approach to examinations and case work ups to allow for an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plans for her patients.  It is this mentality that awarded her the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine Certificate of Clinical Excellence during her senior year of Veterinary School at the University of Illinois.

Dr. Quinn is a key addition to Cary Grove Animal Hospital and our clients and patients enjoy her warm, compassionate demeanor.  She resides in the area with her husband and dogs, and is glad to be back in the area in which she grew up in!

Kylie A. DuBrock, DVM

Associate Veterinarian

 

Dr. DuBrock (previously Dr. Wolf, now married!) is an associate veterinarian who joined Cary Grove Animal Hospital in July of 2023. 

Dr. DuBrock is a graduate of the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine.  She previously practiced in the area at a busy general practice for 2 years as well as worked in shelter medicine and surgery.  She then spent an additional year performing in-home end-of-life care services to families in the area.  During this time, she learned the importance of supporting families through tough times surrounding illness of pets and offering empathy in times of need.  

These previous experiences have given Dr. Wolf a very well-rounded approach to dog and cat patients that she sees at Cary Grove Animal Hospital.  She is passionate about communication with clients to make sure they feel well informed and forms treatment plans tailored to individual pet and family needs.  

Dr. DuBrock has special interests in preventative care, dentistry, cytology/clinical pathology (evaluating lumps and bumps, etc.), and hospice/end of life care. 

Dr. DuBrock is excited to be a part of the CGAH team due to our reputation for high quality medicine and patient care.  She lives in the area with her husband and has a handsome coonhound named Mickey.  In her free time, she enjoys gardening, being out in nature, and baking for family and friends for special occasions!
